Stock, shifts, tips and reservations — under control.
Stop juggling spreadsheets. The Octane keeps your stock accurate, plans the team's shifts, and splits tips fairly by the hours worked — one back office for the whole restaurant. Free while in Beta.
Four principles.
Always accurate
Stock never changes by hand. Every product moves through a logged reason — sale, receipt, breakage, spoilage, tasting or correction — so the count always reconciles.
Plan the team's shifts
Build the month's rota against your opening hours and the coverage each service needs, then confirm the hours actually worked. Target-versus-worked is always in view.
Split tips fairly
Pool the cash and divide it by the hours each person worked — weights and manual overrides included — reconciled to the last 5 rappen, then frozen as a record.
Your data, your team
Multiple restaurants, roles per person, exportable data, no lock-in. Built entirely on our own COSS interface.
Why teams switch from the spreadsheet.
The Octane is purpose-built for restaurants — inventory, shifts and tips — not a generic sheet you have to babysit.
- Stock entry
- By reason
- Daily close
- Minutes
- Reorder
- Suggested
- Restaurants
- Many
Every change is a logged movement — auditable, never a silent overwrite.
Searchable list, live preview, one confirm.
Quantities from your own consumption rate.
One account, several organizations, a role in each.
Figures describe how The Octane works, not a market study. The Octane is in Beta; features evolve.
A day with The Octane.
The rhythm of an accurate cellar.
Morning
Check alerts
Open the dashboard: what is low, what is out, what is forecast to run out.
Delivery
Receive an order
Mark a purchase order received; stock goes up via receipt movements.
Service
Register the unexpected
A broken product or a tasting pour — log it with a reason in seconds.
Close
End the day
Enter what sold, confirm, and let stock and alerts update themselves.
What you can do today.
Build your catalog with photos and reorder thresholds. Run a fast daily close that deducts stock. Register breakage, spoilage and counts. Get reorder suggestions and create purchase orders. Plan the month's staff shifts against opening hours and coverage, confirm the real hours worked, and split the tip pool by those hours. Plan deliveries on the calendar, read low-stock and forecast alerts, and follow a KPI dashboard. All free while in Beta.
What The Octane isn't.
We kept the scope tight on purpose.
Not a POS
The Octane doesn't take payments or run the till. You enter the day's sales; it keeps the stock.
Not an importer
No CSV or POS sync yet — sales are entered manually, fast.
No external AI
Reorder, forecasting and anomaly detection are deterministic and run server-side. No data leaves to an AI service.
Not by the glass
The unit is set per product: each, weight (kg/g) or volume.
No billing
There is nothing to pay. The Octane is free while in Beta.
Not locked in
Export your data whenever you want.
